i have repacked my ball bearings race twice already but after 80 - 100 miles , the 53 bearings spill out again. the woodruff key on the clutch gear has also been replaced. this time i will replace the balls thinking that some of them have been worn down slightly enough that any sudden jerk of the clutch assembly would make them spill out.
i put in 100 miles commuting a week and the motor still runs perfectly. if the clutch remains unreliable, i will consider buying a new complete kit since they are less than $120. i have the older style round pads and they are almost impossible to find replacements for.
this is such a poor design and any ideas or modifications would be greatly appreciated. has anyone who had repacked their ball bearings race have long term success with them not spilling out again?
